The Keepers is a stunning detached house with more than 3,000 square feet of well-appointed accommodation. Set in a rural position approximately five miles from the popular Highland village of Newtonmore in the picturesque Strathspey, the rugged mountain landscapes of the Cairngorms, Monadhliaths and Creag Meagaidh are just moments away. There are stunning views to the west. The house offers comfortable living space for a large family, or for continued use as a guesthouse.

The ground floor of the house has three large main reception rooms, including the stunning sunroom with its timber vaulted ceiling, skylights, panoramic windows and French doors opening onto the gardens. There is also a comfortable and generous sitting room of similar proportions to the sunroom, with a corner fireplace which is fitted with a woodburning stove. The playroom provides further space in which to relax and is currently used as a cinema room. There is also a useful home office on the ground floor, plus a well-equipped kitchen with fitted storage units, an integrated hob, an Aga and space for a dining table. The utility room and laundry provide further space for home storage and appliances.

Of the eight well presented bedrooms, two are located on the ground level, along with a shower room. Upstairs there are four double and two single bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with a built-in wardrobe, eaves storage and an en suite shower room. A further bedroom has an en suite shower room. Upstairs also has a large family bathroom with an over-bath shower.

The house is approached via a track which leads to a gravel driveway at the front of the house, providing plenty of parking space for residents and guests alike. The surrounding woodland provides a sense of seclusion. There are low maintenance lawns on three sides of the house, a herbaceous border, and a deer fenced vegetable garden currently used for chickens. There is ample opportunity for a keen gardener. In addition, there is a large outbuilding with electricity, for use as a garage and workshop; plus a garden shed.

The small town of Kingussie provides local shopping, restaurants, doctor surgery, dentist, butcher, cheese shop, art gallery and secondary schooling.
